Model Atom:
In science we did an experiment/project on making an atom. first we were asked to pick an element from the first 10 on the periodic table I choose Oxygen.
Equipment:
1 piece of card
30 cm of string
blue tac
colored beads for protons+ Neutrons.
Method:
Stick p + n to blue tac
cut out rings from paper
Draw electrons onto rings
Create a label
Type strings to back of paper so it can hang.
I choose to do Oxygen,Oxygen's atomic number is 8 so I had to put 8 beads (Protons and Neutrons) on the center than I had to draw the electrons. Which was 2 on the inner ring and 6 on the outer ring. Ions formation would gain two so it makes a full outer layer of electrons and its easier to add 2 then lose 6.
